Wonderful quick fun listen. Second chances can be the best. Coming home after many years can be challenging but worth it in the end. Best of all those that walk all over you make great doormats.

I love Molly Harper's humor and have read many of her books. I was looking thru my audible library for something on the shorter side to complete or mostly complete on a car ride. This was in my library (no idea when I added it) and it was short and knowing Molly Harper, it would be fun and light, just what I needed.
Fun, short and light it was, and that is what I was looking for. But at the same time it felt a little rushed. Twice I thought I missed something as the story moved so far ahead so quickly, that I thought my mind must have wandered and I missed something so backed up. Nope, I had listened and didn't miss anything. It just jumped ahead quickly several times. This story could have been much longer and more developed and I think I would have enjoyed it more.

I love a good novella, but this novella was not good. The bare bones of the story was fine and it probably would have suited better to be a full length novel, but as it stands it is just a super rushed hallmark movie. Not really worth the read honestly.

DNF@ 20% Heroine I would cross the street to avoid. I can't listen to even 2.5 hours of her whining. I like pasties, but the poor decision was mine!

Pasties and Poor Decisions
I Picked Up This Book Because: I’ve liked the author's other works.
Media Type: Audiobook
Source: Audible
Dates Read: 11/28/23 - 11/28/23
Stars: 4
Narrator(s): Amanda Ronconi and Teddy Hamilton
The Characters:
Ana
Ned
The Story:
A quick tale of an extremely public fall from grace and the rebuilding of life from not so forgotten roots. I really liked most of the story (the daughters pissed me off). Ned and Ana had great chemistry and the town seemed so ready for the changes Ana is going to bring.

Very sweet novella about going home again. BTW pasties are a delicious hand pie pronounced pah-sties, and have nothing to do with the nipple covering pasties.

Okay I put this book on because I like Molly's style.
But I ended up finishing it because it was a second chance romance and those are my favourite. I wanted this to be longer. It was short and sweet but tooooooo short.
Loved the narration.
